Chapter 19 Tianze Fish
In the next few days, Liu Pingsan accompanied his apprentice Chen Chuyi to take care of his parents' funeral.
Liu Pingsan also went to see Mo Qianshan for this matter, and begged him to invite one of the best feng shui masters in Qingrui City to help Chen Chu's father and mother choose a piece of feng shui treasure.
Because Chen Chuyi's family originally migrated from other places, they can only be regarded as outsiders.
So on the day of Chen Chuyi's parents' funeral, except for some neighbors who were already familiar with their family and took the initiative to come to their house to help, there were basically no additional guests.
When these things were basically completed, Liu Pingsan was ready to take his apprentice away and go back to Taoping Town to have a look.
When leaving, Chen Chuyi didn't bring any of the original things at home, and tried his best to maintain his original position.
In the end, when the little one and the master were about to leave, he just closed the window, took the door lock, and locked it.
In his words, nothing remains the same, and it can be regarded as a thought for himself, no matter how far he has gone in the future, he can still remember that he has a home here.
But Liu Pingsan knew in his heart that in addition to this reason, it was just to avoid seeing things and thinking about people from time to time.
In the end, the master and apprentice carried two burdens, one large and one small, and wore two pairs of straw sandals, one large and one small, and went out of the city to the east, and traveled to the guest.
After leaving Qingrui City for more than half a day, Liu Pingsan's apprentices, who were walking in the mountains and forests, met a strange old man.
The reason why he is strange is because today is obviously a sunny day, but the old man is wearing a robe, a hat on his head, and a green bamboo fishing rod of about two meters in his hand, but there is no hook on the line.
At that time, Liu Pingsan's master and apprentice passed by a small pond in the woods, and happened to see the old man fishing by the river.
I saw the old man sitting on the shore, waving the fishing rod in his hand and throwing the line into the water.
Next, a strange thing happened, obviously there was no hook, and there was no bait tied to the fishing line, but the big golden fish in Tan Zhong seemed to be simply interested in the fishing line, and from time to time they bit the transparent fishing line and were pulled ashore by the old man.
When they came ashore, the fish were reluctant to let go, as if they were afraid that they would miss something particularly precious.
This couldn't help but arouse Liu Pingsan's curiosity, and he originally wanted to use his divine sense to investigate, but in the end he gave up the idea.
As for his apprentice Chen Chuyi, not to mention, he had already begun to squat there intently, watching the old man fishing, trying to figure out what was going on.
In the final analysis, the master and apprentice are still young people, Liu Pingsan is better, after all, he is already a cultivator, but Chen Chuyi has never seen such a miraculous thing.
Liu Pingsan thought about it, it was already afternoon at this time, and they were not in a hurry to leave, so he decided to simply stay here tonight and take a break.
The old man turned his head to look at Liu Ping's three masters and apprentices, smiled at them, and then made a shushing motion with his left hand, and when he saw that the two little ones all nodded, the old man turned his head back and continued fishing.
Next to the old man, there was a fish basket woven from verdant bamboo, which didn't look big and didn't seem to have much magic, but as the master and apprentice stayed here for a longer time, they still discovered a magical thing.
No matter how many fish the old man put in the basket, it didn't seem to be full, and there was no movement.
When Chen Chuyi, who looked curious, was about to ask the old man what was going on, Liu Pingsan turned his head and glanced at his apprentice, then shook his head with a smile, signaling him not to disturb easily.
The old man who didn't turn his head seemed to see the small movements of Liu Pingsan and his apprentice behind him, smiled to himself, and took the initiative to speak: "Little friend, don't look at the appearance of my fish basket, it looks small, but the space inside it is large." ”
Chen Chuyi pursed his lips, and said with a face full of disbelief: "I don't believe it, just such a big thing, how many things can be contained." ”
"How big is it, and I'll tell you ......."
At this moment, another fish was hooked, and the old man put the fish into the fish basket, patted the outer wall of the fish basket, and then continued: "It, it can be loaded with big rivers, mountains and rivers, and it can also be loaded with demons and ghosts.
"You liar, I don't believe what you say, how can there be such a powerful fish basket. ”
"Well, how can everyone in this world be like this? Even children are no exception, no one believes the truth, but all lies are taken as the truth. ”
Chen Chuyi lowered his head and continued to look at the fishing line, directly ignoring the old man, obviously not wanting to deal with him.
At this moment, Liu Pingsan suddenly asked, "Grandpa, what kind of fish are these fish? They look so spiritual, I have never seen them before." ”
When the old man heard this, he glanced at Liu Pingsan with appreciation, and then said happily: "This is a Tianze fish, it only feeds on the spirit yuan between heaven and earth, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to catch it!"
"Grandpa, are there many such fish in the world?"
The old man in the cloth thought for a while before he replied: "There must not be much, this kind of fish is also a rare treasure in the cultivation world, many ordinary cultivators may not meet it once in their lives, and those who meet it may not be able to get it; after getting it, they may not know how to use it, there is a saying that those who get heaven Ze do not know what to do." ”
When Liu Pingsan heard this, he nodded seriously and continued to ask: "I just don't know, what is the use of this Tianze fish for cultivators, I wonder if the old gentleman can solve my doubts?"
It could be seen that the old man was in a good mood at this time, so he also answered the question raised by Liu Pingsan seriously: "In fact, this kind of spiritual object is not particularly precious to powerful cultivators, and many powerful sects will specially raise some in the sect pool to develop the strength of their sect." The effect is also very simple, that is, it can help cultivators consolidate their foundation and broaden the path of cultivation, but unfortunately, this thing is only useful for monks in the Huang True Realm, so old bones like us are not blessed to enjoy, and even if they get it, they can only be left to future generations. ”
Liu Pingsan nodded, and some thoughts came to his heart, but before he could take action, the old man poured a basin of cold water on him.
"Little brother, you still don't want to think about catching this kind of fish, it can only be in vain. ”
Chen Chuyi said angrily on the side: "I want you to take care of it!"
The old man in the cloak smiled and stopped talking.
Liu Pingsan also didn't believe in evil in his heart, but no matter what method he tried, he found that he couldn't catch a fish, and finally had no choice but to give up.
At night, Liu Ping's three masters and apprentices lit a fire and began to roast rabbit meat.
This hare was specially brought by Liu Pingsan this afternoon to be used as a dinner for their master and apprentice.
I saw Liu Pingsan skillfully plucking the rabbit's feathers, cleaning the internal organs, and skewering the rabbit meat with a wooden stick, and roasting it on the fire.
It didn't take long for the rabbit meat to be charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and Liu Pingsan sprinkled a little salt on the outside, and a pure meaty aroma gradually began to overflow.
The old man who was originally sitting on the edge of the pond meditating, smelled this fragrance, suddenly appeared in front of Liu Pingsan, and said with a playful face: "Little brother, such a beautiful day, how can you do it without meat! Old man, I happen to have a pot of good wine, why don't you and I have this rabbit meat and drink it?"
Chen Chuyi rolled his eyes on the side, and muttered, "If you want to eat meat, just say it, and go around so many curves." ”
